[Bug 1571939] Re: Ubuntu GNOME fails to boot after Trusty -> Xenial upgrade

[Erick Brunzell]

I've now tried Ubuntu GNOME Trusty w/Wily HWE -> Xenial twice, selecting
no the first time, and yes the second time when asked about restarting
services. Both failed in the same manner. I'm now going to try Ubuntu
GNOME Trusty w/Trusty HWE -> Xenial, and Trusty w/Utopic HWE -> Xenial
to see if the same thing happens.

Title:
  Ubuntu GNOME fails to boot after Trusty -> Xenial upgrade

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Not sure what's gone wrong. After what appeared to be successful
  completion of the release upgrade I'm unable to boot. In recovery mode
  it seems that networking can't be enabled and I get an error about no
  resolv.conf. When trying to boot either the new kernel or the older
  Trusty (Wily HWE) kernel the screen fills rapidly with errors about
  UID 1000 followed by a screen with only a blinking tty1 login, but
  I've never been able to get it to accept my login. I did copy the
  dist-upgrade logs so I'll attach them.
